How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The theme of corrupted trust in Nevison Gallagher's handling of the kidnapping (cand_evt_scene_39b88b4f03dbae1e_02) parallels Catherine's suspicion of systemic corruption (cand_evt_scene_e6f079837f587fbc_03), where she probes Ann about the Knezevics while questioning the legitimacy of Ryan's birthday gift."
